Hi,
I modified eal_legacy_hugepage_init and problem is solved.
Should the correction be added to dpdk upstream?

Subject: dpdk-pdump prints "EAL: Error: Invalid memory"
Hi,
After updating dpdk version from 19.11 to 20.11
dpdk-pdump prints such error:
EAL: Error: Invalid memory
Port 7 MAC: 02 70 63 61 70 03
core (2), capture for (1) tuples
- port 0 device ((null)) queue 65535
^C
--legacy-mem is used for both primary primary and dpdk-pdump.
With some debug, I find that mlx5_mem_is_rte incorrectly consider this address from os memory ((addr=0x4482b80)) as rte address, so mlx5_free
calls rte_free() to free it and caused error.
And this seems to because len of some unused memsegs is not set to 0 (so rte_mem_virt2memseg_list(0x4482b80) returns a memseg).
Here is memsegs:
(gdb) p mcfg->memsegs
$3 = {{{base_va = 0x2aac0000000, addr_64 = 2932388921344}, page_sz = 1073741824, socket_id = 0,

Continuing.
Thread 1 "dpdk-pdump" hit Breakpoint 5, rte_free (addr=0x4482b80)
It seems to me that below code piece from eal_legacy_hugepage_init should also set len to 0?
/* we're not going to allocate more pages, so release VA space for
* unused memseg lists
*/
for (i = 0; i < RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_LISTS; i++) {
struct rte_memseg_list *msl = &mcfg->memsegs[i];
size_t mem_sz;
/* skip inactive lists */
if (msl->base_va == NULL)
continue;
/* skip lists where there is at least one page allocated */
if (msl->memseg_arr.count > 0)
continue;
/* this is an unused list, deallocate it */
mem_sz = msl->len;
munmap(msl->base_va, mem_sz);
msl->base_va = NULL;
// here, we should add msl->len = 0; ?
msl->heap = 0;
/* destroy backing fbarray */
rte_fbarray_destroy(&msl->memseg_arr);
}
Any comment?
Thank you.
